Review the latest developments at the FASB, AICPA, and other professional bodies impacting accounting and auditing

Prerequisite:

Minimum to intermediate level of auditing experience.

The Accounting and Auditing Update is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive, in-depth review of what’s happening at the FASB, AICPA, and other professional bodies who may impact accounting and auditing this year, including FASB Statements and Interpretations, Statements on Auditing Standards, Auditing Interpretations, Audit Guides, Statements of Position, exposure drafts and projects in progress, with emphasis on the practical application and impact on practitioners in small to medium sized firms and members in industry.

In addition, our panel of experts will explore the increasingly important issue of Business Fraud, which impacts most businesses, especially smaller businesses that often lack the resources to address issues such as separation of duties. It is precisely these businesses where the CPA is the first line of defense against fraud. Learn how to assess the risk of fraud that is inherent in almost every business and take steps to combat them.

Finally, you will receive a Professional Ethics Update that will address the practical realities, as well as the regulatory requirements of the CPA professional.

Faculty Interaction! With ACPEN courses, you may send questions to the panel in advance at [email protected], and remember, participants can submit questions to the panel during the course and for two days after every ACPEN course, providing unparalleled faculty access!
